Received Saturday, 11.15 a.m. PARIS. Oct. 11. Continuing the Peace Conference debate on the draft treaty for Bulgaria, M. Piyade (Yugoslavia) demanded the removal of British troops from Greece and the withdrawal of American warships from Greek and Aegean waters. M. Piyade affirmed Yugoslav friendship for Buigana. He declared that Greece's attitude was the only dark spot marring relations between Balkan nations, whieh at present were working out a co-op-erative system. He added that the time had come for the deliverance of the Balkans from the pressure and interference of foreign powers Mr. Daffey (United States) said that if Greek security should be endangered by the act of an aggressor nation, the United States could be counted on to act in accordance with its solemn undertakings under United Nations. He added that the best security for Greece lay not so much in territorial changes as in United Nations broad powers. M. Vyshinsky (Russia) , criticising the British and American attitude towards a new Bulgaria, said: "Certain elements are supporting some Greek claims whieh are not favourable to peace in the Balkans." Speaking heatedly and gesticulating vigorously, M. Vyshinsky knocked over a glass of water, some of whieh fell on the head of the translator under the rostrum, causing laughter. "Where there is fire there must be water," commented M. Vyshinsky, who continued to complain that Bulgaria — this small Slav state — was not having fair play. He declared that the new Bulgarian Republic could teach other countries much regarding constitution making, notably Greece, whieh was far behind Bulgaria in this respect and in political, eeonomic, social and cultural progress.
